Robert De Niro, wife welcome baby daughter via surrogate

Robert De Niro and Grace Hightower walk the red carpet at the 'New Year's Eve' premiere on Dec. 7 in New York City.

Surprise! Robert De Niro, 68, is a daddy again.

The actor and his wife, Grace Hightower, 56, have just announced the happy news that they are welcoming a daughter, Helen Grace Hightower, to the family.

The healthy 7-pound, 2-ounce baby was born through a surrogate mother, according to De Niro's rep.

This is the couple's second child. Their first, Elliot, was born March 18, 1998.

De Niro and his first wife, Diahnne Abbott, have a son, Raphael, a former actor who works in New York real estate, and De Niro also adopted Abbott's daughter, Drena, from a previous relationship.

De Niro has twin sons, Julian Henry and Aaron Kendrik, conceived by in vitro fertilization and delivered by a surrogate mother in 1995, from a relationship with former model Toukie Smith.
